I really like the 2nd option for the display, it looks good and allows a nice way to view the screen. I am interested to see how it prints. Excellent job on all the designs Rob.

I would have opted for the photocell on top of the screen facing the same direction.
or does it work better on the sides of the screen?

Thanks Chris, someone sent a link with a box similar so I re-make it.
If anyone needs small changes like the photocell moved I can do that, I don't think it changes much were its located. I figured the side so everything is together. I made a small plug that the photocell fits in and pushes into the box. The plug is meant to be printed in transparent material so light can get through it to the sensor.

Hi Chris, currently they're for sale only. I've been asked a few times about this, unfortunately if I want to stick around I need to make a bit of money, I don't want to disappear and would like to continue improving the controller so I need to watch the bottom line.

Do you perhaps have a flatsheet drawing of the display case?
Thinking about building one with acrylic sheets since we have a new laser cutter at work :)

Hey Fietsenrex, no I don't have any drawings but I can put something together showing all the spacing between cutouts if that helps you.

Only if it is not that much effort.
The sides that don't have any cut-outs are easy.
But if you have it laying around i would love to get it and show it off when finished

I don't have a 2D layout but with those numbers and a calculator it should work? If you need more let me know. I never moved any ports on the display board so any will fit it, the displays all have the SD card slot in the same spot so that should line up as well.

Should work.
Good enough all of the cut outs are there.
Not sure if i need them all since the shield only uses the rj45 in my case.

yeah you could get away with just the rj45 hole, the round one is for the photocell but requires an insert and the other is for programming port on Due.
